VERNIER OPTICS EXPANSION KIT
Add the Vernier Optics Expansion Kit to your Vernier Dynamics Cart and Track System to conduct optics experiments such as:
• Image formation with lenses
• Light intensity vs. distance
• Inverse-square intensity relationship for light from a point source
• Build a basic telescope

The parts of the Optics Expansion Kit snap on to the track and can be left in place while the track is moved. The three lenses are permanently mounted in three plastic supports. An additional aperture plate is included for experiments based on lens diameter and shape.

The light source is LED-based so that it uses less energy and is cool to the touch. A rotating disc on the light source gives the option of a radiant object, a point source, an "L" with 2 x 1cm dimension and parallel lines for resolution experiments.
The power supply is the same as the LabQuest power supply.

Vernier's Optics Expansion Kit requires a Vernier Track to serve as an optics bench.
The Vernier Track is included with the DTS Vernier Dynamics Cart and Track System and the DTS-GDX Vernier Go Direct Dynamics System

For additive and subtractive colour mixing experiments add the CM-OEK Vernier Colour Mixer Kit
